Transcript
Joseph Emmanuel Ingoldsby trained in art and landscape
architecture with Ian McHarg, who mentored him on Design
with Nature. Mr. Ingoldsby’s work combines art, science and
technology to advocate for vanishing landscapes and
endangered species. The artist can play an integral role in the
raising of the public consciousness through advocacy. Art can
be used to communicate complex ecological and scientific
principles to an audience outside of the confines of the
academy. This eulogy for Vanishing Landscapes and
Endangered Species must be told with an urgency that speaks
to the immediacy of the visible and documented changes in our
world. The collaborative works examine, explain and illustrate
issues as climate change, fragmentation of the landscape,
broken trophic cascades, species shifts and extinction, and the
loss of the natural and cultural landscape.
Fragmentation of the Natural and Cultural Landscape
I am interested in exploring the natural and cultural history of
the Midwest. The lecture outlines the historic, political and
technological shifts that advanced the westward manifest
destiny, and their impacts on the natural and cultural
landscapes of the region. The illustrated lecture traces out the
progressive imprint and impact of settlement and infrastructure
on the native landscape over time.
